Amsterdam is one of the most romantic cities in the world, with more than a million bikes, great street food and the best afternoon tea served at The Amstel Hotel Lounge. The Amstel Hotel was the best hotel in 1867 and interesting enough, still a great hotel in town. The Lounge is where afternoon tea is served, an elegant traditional place. ​The rock starts of the Afternoon Tea are the teas: Darjeeling (Golden flowery Orange Pekoe), Long Jing, Oolong, Bali and Carcadet, each tea was paired very well with different food courses. The Service was elegant; the waitress was well trained and gave a brief but good description of the tea. The Sandwiches were served in a giant round bread loaf (a show stopper) filed with delicious salmon and egg sandwiches. The pastries were also delicious with a selection of macaroons, mandarin and chocolate tart; walnut cake and moka cream and the scones were just amazing. Would I get back to have this afternoon tea again? Yes Yes Yes.
